Messing around with campaign notes lately and thought I'd post some relevant links here. Maria Brink is the model for my version of the Vampire Necromancer, Lady Bathorii:

And it's tough to go wrong with Japanese girl metal:

This may have come up before but I had this own while writing up some campaign notes tonight. It's called From Hell with Love: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f8qWbowzwZU

Cheesy, but kind of awesome.

Hailing as most of you do from lands untouched by the civilizing force of the world's greatest radio station, you might never have heard of Hits from the Crypt with Keilidh. This is unfortunate, but a remedy exists: the internet!

Last weekend's had some particularly D&D songs going: https://wfmu.org/playlists/shows/91612

You are welcome.

Also: like all right thinking people, you will probably like Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs: https://pigspigspigspigspigspigspigs.bandcamp.com/album/king-of-cowards

Oh, and in case you ever wondered if my dog really WOULD steal pizza in a video for a fem noise-punk band with eruptions of haunted D&D noise, well:

My first post here, and it's reviving an old thread, LOL But this is a topic that is near and dear to my heart. Here are a few bands that remind me of AS&SH (and other similar type games)

(110) Demon Eye - Hecate (Official Video) - YouTube

(110) Cauldron - No Return / In Ruin - YouTube

(110) Bastard Steel - YouTube

(110) Tanith - Citadel [Single] (2017) - YouTube

Electric Wizard is definitely one of my favorites to write to. Or just in general lol. Glad to see them in the very first post!

Just discovered these guys: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HB8fl8QbSc8&t=100s

Apparently they have several earlier albums as well. Fun stuff.

Hey DMPrata

That was fantastic work..

Had not much time to listen to it when I first posted, you should place your link in a separate post so it not lost in the the barrage of other stuff.

Powerful stuff, as good as any...

I salute thee...

I was in a group once Keltic (traditional), toured Vancouver, which was not bad for folk fa Glasgow, could have got contract to tour world; New Zealand, etc, where Scot's folks immigrated to, but I wanted to go to Amazon jungle, I should have took the money.

How have I never heard of these guys?!? ... Just "discovered" the recent remaster of their first album 'Frost and Fire' and have gone down a rabbit hole finding their other releases .... They're reformed and just put out a new album a year or so ago ... Check 'em out!
